    Its not a rumor , its something which is live in Swedon in a 75 year old lady Sigbritt Löthberg’s house.She is the mother of Swedish internet legend Peter Löthberg who, along with Karlstad Stadsnät, the local council’s network arm, has arranged the connection.

    40 gbps internet speed in swedon

    As reported the trick behind the setup is a “new modulation technique which allows data to be transferred directly between two routers up to 2,000-kilometers apart with no intermediary transponders

    The power of such high speed internet connection , gives Sigbritt an option to download a full HD DVD movie in just 2 seconds.

    Amazing isnt it ?? This is how fiber optic technology for transferring the data can revolutionize the internet world. Time is not that far when this kind of high speed internet will be available worldwide and that too on a wide scale because of the rising demand of high definition audio video,which result in exponential increase in size of a small video clips.

    Some time back I heard the news , that some celebrities are kind of scared of High Definition Video as it may make their wrinkles on face visible on the big screen. This just gives an idea of the clarity in HD video.

    it might be possible 40 gbps. but it require huge system capacity in infrastructure. a noraml IT comp spends millions of $$$$ for jus few 10-15 mbps line.

    it means that an old lady 75 of age is using the inernet @ 2.5 billion $ or 1 hour surfing…

    isn’t that gr888.
    hehehehhehe

    @jai kr , Nice point there :) . Well yeah the 75 year old lady is actually the mother of the , Swedish internet legend. Most probably it might be government funded , as a tribute to the services of the guy. :)

    This is impossible, even the most highest spec hard drive available to date, can only write at approx 3.5gbps.
    So theroetically, you would be able to download from the internet at that speed, but there isn’t the technology available to use the full potential, so your actual download speeds would be limited from 40mbps to that of your hard drive.

    May be we can use it for high speed streaming video. You can see a HD DVD quality video online from a video streaming server. :)

    @ross ,

    you are right , its not practically possible. Its written in the post this fast internet gives an option for her to download HD movies in 2 secs. May be after some time when HDD will support that much speed , then this will be a working option :).

    @smackall : that gives another good solution .. :) .. gr8 .

    [...] know what kind of annoys me? Forget that ridiculously high connection in Sweden that downloads an HD movie in 2 seconds (it makes the folks at PirateBay drool I suppose). The theoretical maximum of ADSL is 8 Mbps. They [...]
